thanks for the nice tip

you can also use mplayer instead of xawtv on the host to view the stream from the webcam.

Code:

mplayer tv:// -fps 15 -tv device=/dev/video1:driver=v4l:input=1:width=320:height=240

I'm not sure that my frame rate is optimal, but the lag is not that bad, and the stream watchable.
